Despite being divorced for 27 years, the pair have an unusual living arrangement while she is in the UK.
Sarah Ferguson is recovering with her family after undergoing a breast cancer operation, her spokesperson has said.
Speaking on to US TV host Ernie Manouse in 2010, Fergie explained that she barely got to see her partner, with days together working out collectively to just over one month annually. Taken at her villa in St Tropez, the images showed John, her "financial advisor", kissing and sucking on her toes, while other pictures captured them frolicking in the pool. Fergie was driven out of the family as a result, and she and Andrew divorced in 1996.
Since 2008 it has been a place where Sarah also stays whenever she is in the UK, as the pair co-parent and co-grandparent, Beatrice, Eugenie, and the new additions to their family. The pair also share the responsibility of looking after the late Queen's beloved corgis. "When I'm in the UK I'm lucky enough to stay at Royal Lodge. I wouldn't call it my home as that would be presumptuous," she added.
"My duty is to him. I am so proud of him. I stand by him and always will. The way we are is our fairy tale." The duchess continued to say: "The Yorks are a united family. We've shown it. You saw it at the wedding," she said.
